The Narendra Modi-led administration in India - statistics and facts
As India鈥檚 colossal elections begin in April 2024, the incumbent Narendra-Modi-led government will be seeking a third term in office. The party came to power in 2014 with a sweeping majority in the election polls. The government modeled itself as the 鈥減eople鈥檚 government鈥, claiming to distance politics from elitist agenda. The election campaigns were replete with mass appealing slogans such as 鈥淎bki Baar, Modi Sarkar (This time, it will be a Modi government)鈥, 鈥淎cche Din Aayenge (Good times will follow)鈥, or 鈥淪abka Saath, Sabka Vikas (Development for all)鈥. Supporters of the government laud its grand success with reference to infrastructure projects, global brand building, digitalization, and welfare initiatives. However, the critics characterize the tenure with the decline of democracy and press freedom, the rise of majoritarianism, and the misuse of central agencies to target the Opposition.
